Grits in the Graveyard

Witch Hazel Lane Mysteries Series, Book 1

By: J.L. Collins

Narrated by: Tiffany Morgan

An escape - that's exactly what Birdie Devaine needs when witches around the world publicly announce their existence.

Instead of performing for the sold-out crowd at her world-famous magic show in Vegas, Birdie runs away from the dazzling lights to her hometown in Mississippi. Back to the town she swore off over a century ago.

She thinks she has it all planned out - keeping busy with renovating an old beautiful house and eventually fading away from the spotlight. But the house has its secrets, including the haunted cemetery that Birdie is now responsible for. It doesn't help when her nosy neighbor catches on to Birdie's big secret - that she's a true witch with real magical powers.

But when the busybody turns up dead on Birdie's new property, the former southern debutante becomes the prime suspect in the case. Cue the ladies of Witch Hazel Lane - a group of women who've stuck together for 40 years. With their help, Birdie is on the hunt for the real killer. Will they help get her off the hook? Will Birdie's true nature stay secret? And what is she supposed to do with the stray dog that refuses to leave her house?

Fan

A cute little cozy mystery. It is fun in listening how Birdie is going to keep getting secret. Can’t wait to see what happens in the next book.

The friendships that where formed! ❤️

Was enjoyable and I liked the narrator’s voice. I would like to hear more stories she has done. I enjoyed the story.

good clean fun

this book is not full of smut or disgusting references, it's just good clean fun and listening to Southern belles be appalled it lewd and rude behavior..lol. I love it!

Great listen

Really enjoyed this debut and will be working my way thru the series over the next few weeks

Not bad for a first in the series.

J.L. Collins has crafted a story that’s not bad for a first in the series. I’m hoping for more in the second book. Tiffany Morgan, as always, gave an above average performance as she brought it all to life. I’m about to start the next in the series.
